Story Time is on tomorrow, Thursday 10.30am for under 5's and their caregivers. Meet some new people, sing some songs and craft away an hour with us, we'd love to see you.

While we don't encourage climbing on our trolley, we couldn't resist snapping a photo of this cheeky monkey at story time at St Arnaud last week!

We love welcoming families to our story time sessions in St Arnaud and Stawell and enjoy seeing children - such as Elodie here - explore all our branches have to offer.

Or team runs story time sessions in Stawell and St Arnaud on Thursdays at 10.30am, with an additional session in Stawell on Fridays at 10.30am.

Story time is one of our most-loved programs and is designed to foster a love of reading, support early literacy, and provide social interaction for children and their caregivers. We hope to see you at a session soon!
